Dear friends: I am posting this at the recommendation of your webmaster. I am the proud owner of a 1953 Mercury Monterey Woodie wagon and 1950 Boles aero (both were once common at the stations you care most about!). We restored them and drove them coast-to-coast and back during May-July this year. I am writing a book about the experience and am looking for information, photos, books on Ford factories, local gas stations and travel-related items, stories from around Metuchen NJ (the place where the Merc was built by Ford MoCo) as it relates to vintage vacations and this car. Our web site (just for grins -- it's really very good) is www.1950svacation.com. thanks you in advance for any help!
